Man United Vs Crystal Palace: Wilfried Zaha absolutely owned Ashley Young at the Old Trafford as the Eagles secure three points.

Manchester United had a rough day at home, with Crystal Palace taking three points in an away game against the Red Devils. It is even more hurtful for Manchester United as they were able to equalize the score yet in the final minutes of the game, Crystal palace scored to gain their first win of the season.

Amidst this, Manchester United’s captain, Ashley Young had an embarrassing moment against Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha. In the video below, it can be seen that Zaha beats Young not once, not twice, but three times using a variety of stepovers and fakes.

The Ivorian International returned to the Eagles lineup after having a long set of departure speculations to Arsenal and Everton. Thus, the 26-year-old forward remained on the bench for the first match.

However, in the second match against Sheffield United, Zaha returned to the team list for the first time in the new Premier League season. Since the English transfer season is over the possibility of Zaha moving away until January is over as he wants to remain in England.

Thus, with this level of security, the Ivorian winger is back on the field for the Eagles. Although he had an underwhelming match against Sheffield United but had a better output against Manchester United.

The skill against Young is the prime example of it, although Zaha is yet to find the net in the two appearances he gave so far. On the other side, Young game onto the pitch to replace Luke Shaw just moments before the end of the first half, but who knew that he will be humiliated by his former teammate.

Just like Young after this skill, Manchester United were also left stunned with the scoreline in the end.
